Silicon Valley (Seasons 1–6)

Silicon Valley — watch online on iFILM, an HBO comedy series that ran from 2014 to 2019 across 6 seasons and 53 episodes. Created by Mike Judge and Alec Berg, the show drew on Judge's firsthand time as an engineer in the Valley during the late '80s.

Richard Hendricks is a socially awkward coder living in a startup incubator who stumbles onto a genuinely revolutionary compression algorithm. Tech giant Gavin Belson — played by Matt Ross — wants it. Richard says no, and that decision kicks off years of disasters, near-wins, and improbable comebacks with his team: the sardonic Gilfoyle (Martin Starr), the competitive Dinesh (Kumail Nanjiani), and the anxiously loyal Jared (Zach Woods). The show is less about disruption and more about what it actually costs to build something from scratch when everyone around you has more money and less scruple.

Engineers at real Bay Area companies called it uncomfortably accurate. Stream all seasons of Silicon Valley online on iFILM.
